Action Item Review
Show and Tell

Grant Opportunity: Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan
- Matt O. - The Akron Ohio Hackerspace got 15k grant through their community something foundation. There's foundations that just want to give away. I got to thinking that maybe there was a foundation like that for us.
Nate B is appreciative of Matt taking the initiative. They almost hug, but keep their composure for the good of the membership.

New Business
- Justin Triplett
Coordinators-- what does it meant o be a Zone warden? How much Trust
Marie- Review of bylaws most people began putting in their own money. We want to balance the motivation of wardens, and using groups funds for the good of the group.
the idea is to have wardens elected every year. Or some sort of yearly review with the wardens.
If you have ideas or strong opinions-- talk to Marie. She will be putting together a motion for the next meeting.
Nate B Expresses what we have done in the past. He agrees that something needs to be done.
Terry asks if there will be some sort of "job description" for Coordinators.
Less rules are good!

We also are thinking about putting emergency contact information around the space so people have quick reference.

Within the past few months we have had a few incidents. We wanted to remind everyone of the harassment policy that we do take seriously. If at any time any one feels uncomfortable please contact the board immediately. We want to keep out the negative.
